Writing poems and working on some powerful 9~11 pieces to mark some very personal experiences I had almost a decade ago now~Issues close to me have put off exploring returning to my home states of NH & VT to share pieces...As always if a show~gallery or event calls to me I sometimes spontaneously get involved~Please use my contact info if you'd like to pass along anything you feel may resonate with me or if my work resonates with you as far as showing it~Now in full Tea Time with no tick tock clocks in sight...I am still trying to get back to book mode as far as writing and illustrating but will continue to keep my Art Visible and my Energy Out there as it is In as well~Focusing on PPP~Photography~Poetry & Publishing~Please scroll down to the ~Reflections~listed below by year to view the places I have shown my work and shows I have been involved in...

October 14th~Woodstock Artist's Studio Tour 2011 Promotional Art Opening~This year for the first time...there was a call for local artists to come together to keep a beloved event alive! Aurora managed to keep the tour going for the last two years with minimal financial means paid by all participating artists and gave of herself through all her time and dedication! I recently was not unable to participate in the Shandaken Tour so I am very pleased to support this event! We are hoping with time to have the kind of support that the Shandaken Tour has gained! This event is being held at the Colony Cafe in Woodstock NY on Rock City Road from 7pm to 10pm or later =Z~Fresh out of all the Cosmic Chaos of the 12th annual Woodstock Film Festival~This promises to be an Amazing night~The art will be available for several weeks so please go and check it out! More information soon as to the musicians that will be joining us that evening~I will also post the link to our FB event page soon =Z

~Poetika~
There are currently no poetry publications to post~Poetry Spews may be anywhere here on Wixiviz site or on the Poetry Page~I will at some *point* gather a collection together for sharing...but it's not on the canvas yet...
~Book~Marks & Breadcrumbs~
2011~There are no book publication dates or sales to post at this time~A series of children's books is being created as well as other individual tales being written~I am happiest in the NYC bubble of Greenwich village and hope to do all my NYC rippling from there or perhaps Brooklyn as I have been told this is the new SoHo~(Triangles All A~Round)~I am also considering seeking out an agent and publishing in Vermont~I am truly still trying to do this but must trust and not resent the seemingly endless flow of things that continue to want tending to first=Z
